What is required for a user story to move to production in the absence of a connection behavior?

For a user story to move to production in the absence of a connection behavior, manual intervention is necessary. This process typically involves a user or an administrator who oversees the deployment to ensure that all prerequisites and conditions are met before the user story can proceed to production.

In the context of deployment processes, particularly when automated connections or behaviors are not in place, relying on manual steps helps maintain control over the release cycle and mitigate risks associated with pushing changes to production.

The other options do not apply effectively in this scenario. Automatic promotion would imply that changes could be pushed to production without manual checks, which is not feasible in this case. Scheduled actions suggest an automated timeline that would not be compatible without established connection behaviors, which are absent here. Having no requirements at all would undermine the structured processes necessary for ensuring quality and stability in production environments.
